@burmaboi The rules consistently use the term “into” when referencing the ending space of a unit’s move and “through” when referencing spaces passed through along the way. So, an air unit must conduct combat if it moves “into” an enemy-occupied space, but not “through” one (other than being fired upon by AA guns). Also, on page 14, the rules mention AA guns in “flown over” territories, which indicates that enemy-occupied territories may be moved through, and the Official Rules Clarifications make the same reference on page 2 in point 6 regarding AA guns.
Carriers and Fighters

It’s been eons since I even had to think about this but:
If you have 42 IPC, can you purchase a Carrier (18) and 2 Fighters (24) and place them all in a sea zone at the same time?
I know you can’t build carriers and land old fighters on them like you can in Revised and Anniversary. I just don’t remember if the rule also applies to new carriers and NEW fighters?

You can only place new fighters in a territory containing an IC. You can’t place them directly onto carriers, whether new or existing.
